what to do Paed dentist or general dentist specialising in detail under sedation

DD1 has to have 3 small fillings under sedation. We had a consultation at the Paed Dentist and it is going to cost us over $1500 including anethetist to have them done there and his manner was not that nice. Otherwise I can take her to a general dental surgeon who can do the fillings under sedation with an anethetist and it will be considerable cheaper as he is not a specialist paedetric dentist but we will have to wait another 6 weeks longer to get them done. What would you do, our normal dentist who referred us the the Paed Dentist was happy to do the fillings but DD1 was not to cooperative to having so many things in her mouth. I just want her first major treatment to be a good outcome not a terrifying one like I had.
